Del Castillo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

Though his absence from the lineup against a left-handed starter (Parker Messick) doesn't come as a surprise, the left-handed-hitting Del Castillo was on the bench for two matchups against right-handed starters over the Diamondbacks' previous three contests. Del Castillo has slashed an underwhelming .232/.270/.391 with a 32.4 percent strikeout rate over 74 plate appearances since being called up from Triple-A Reno coming out of the All-Star break, and until he picks up the pace at the dish, he might have to settle for more of a part-time role.

Smith is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

After returning from the injured list Monday, the left-handed-hitting Smith was included in the lineup for the first two games of the series while the Guardians sent right-handed starters to the hill. With southpaw Parker Messick toeing the rubber for Cleveland in the finale, Smith will give way to the right-handed-hitting Tyler Locklear at first base. The two players could end up forming a loose platoon at the position over the final few weeks of the season.

McCutchen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.

In what's becoming a regular occurrence since the All-Star break, McCutchen will get a breather for the day game after a night game. With McCutchen on the bench, Bryan Reynolds will serve as the Pirates' designated hitter.

Herrera went 2-for-5 with three RBI and a steal in Tuesday's win over the Marlins.

Herrera drove in the first three runs of the game for the Cardinals with a single to right in the first and another one in the second. It was his first multi-RBI game since July 24, and he's now hit safely in seven of his last eight games. Herrera's second-inning steal was his sixth theft of the season, passing his previous best of five from 2024. The 25-year-old is slashing .289/.366/.440 with 10 homers, 46 RBI, 31 runs and a 28:64 BB:K in 303 plate appearances.

Andujar went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI and one run scored in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Angels.

Andujar sat out Monday's series opener after his eight-game hitting streak ended Sunday against the Brewers. The 30-year-old resumed his hot hitting Tuesday, plating a run in the fourth and fifth innings. He's batting .395 (17-for-43) over 14 games since he was traded to the Reds from the Athletics. Andujar is now at a .314/.351/.475 slash line with nine home runs, 38 RBI, 31 runs scored and one stolen base across 74 contests on the year.

The Nationals recalled Chaparro from Triple-A Rochester on Tuesday.

Chaparro should see a decent amount of playing time at first base and/or designated hitter with Nathaniel Lowe now out of the picture. The 26-year-old has slashed .275/.384/.577 with 14 home runs over 48 games this season with Rochester.

Smith started at first base and went 0-for-2 before being lifted for a pinch hitter in Monday's 3-1 loss to Cleveland.

Smith was activated off the injured list Monday and was in the lineup against a right-hander. He was eventually pinch hit for against a lefty reliever by the right-handed batting Tyler Locklear, who had served as the primary first baseman since the Diamondbacks traded Josh Naylor. The two could operate as a platoon at the cold corner while Arizona is nominally a competitor for the postseason. At some point, the organization may want to see if the 24-year-old Locklear is a long-term solution.

O'Hearn went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Giants.

O'Hearn got the Padres within a run in the seventh inning, but that was as close as they got. The 32-year-old has had a poor August -- he's batting just .200 with four extra-base hits and seven RBI over 14 games since joining the Padres at the trade deadline. Overall, he's at a .275/.369/.460 slash line with 15 homers, 50 RBI, 49 runs scored and three stolen bases across 108 contests between San Diego and Baltimore.

Flores went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Monday's 4-3 win over the Padres.

Flores got the start at designated hitter, and he made an early impact by taking southpaw Nestor Cortes deep in the first inning. Flores was one of three Giants to hit a homer in the opening frame, and that ultimately was all the offense the team needed. Playing in a short-side platoon role, Flores will likely continue to be limited for playing time. The veteran infielder has gone 5-for-16 (.313) over just seven games in August. On the year, he's slashing .248/.316/.383 with 13 homers, 63 RBI, 37 runs scored and one stolen base over 395 plate appearances.

Devers went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 4-3 win over the Padres.

Devers went back-to-back with Heliot Ramos to open the game. Over the last 10 games, Devers has hit four homers while batting .282 (11-for-39). The 28-year-old is up to 24 long balls, 82 RBI, 70 runs scored, one stolen base and 28 doubles while maintaining a .257/.377/.469 slash line through 126 contests between the Giants and the Red Sox this season.
